insanın içini yırtan, nerede olduğunu unutturan, gecenin içine katıp duvarlar ile çarpan şarkı. diyeceğim şudur ki; "ice and fire and forest we passed"
Amorphis'in 1999 çıkışlı Tuonela albümünde yer alan albümün 3. şarkısı.
As a rot to rape the spring sown seed
A plague sprang forth of his tracks
Churns ran red when cows milked blood
And famine cracked poor backs
Who would hear a lament sad
Under the bright blue sky
That's sung in hovels dark and low
With eyes too weak to cry
But horror be the nightfall's gloom
For the man upon the road
When moon doth laugh at worthless lives
Twice hard for all promise showed
Empty stare upon his face
Nine fathoms deep
He set upon the road again
On ground that bears no seed

No sign of life did flicker
In floods of tears she cried
"All hope's lost it can't be undone
They're wasted and gone"
Save me your speeches, I know
(They blinded us all)
What you want?
You will take it away from me, take it and I know for sure
The light she once brought in is gone forevermore
Like sorrowful seagulls they sang
(We're)
Lost in the deep shades, the misty cloud brought
(A wailing when beauty was gone)
(Come take a look at the sky)
Monstrous it covered the shore
Fearful into the unknown, quietly it crept in new horror
Insanity reigned and spilled the first blood
When the old king was slain
Nightfall, quietly crept in and changed us all
Nightfall, quietly crept in and changed us all
Nightfall, immortal land lies down in agony
How long shall we mourn in the dark
The bliss and the beauty will not return
Say farewell to sadness and grief
Though long and hard the road may be
But even in silence I heard the words
An oath we shall swear, by the name of the one
Until the world's end it can't be broken
Just wondering how I can still hear these voices inside
The doom of the Noldor drew near
The words of a banished king
I swear revenge filled with anger aflamed our hearts
Full of hate full of pride all we screamed for revenge
Nightfall, quietly crept in and changed us all
Nightfall, quietly crept in and changed us all
Nightfall, immortal land lies down in agony
Vala he is that's what you said
Then your oath's been sworn in vain
(But)
Freely you came and you freely shall depart
(So)
Never trust the northern winds
Never turn your back on friends
Oh, I'm heir of the high Lord
You better don't trust him
The enemy of mine, isn't he of your kind and
Finally you may follow me, farewell he said
Nightfall, quietly crept in and changed us all
Nightfall, quietly crept in and changed us all
Nightfall, immortal land lies down in agony
Back to where it all began
Back to where it all began
